Summary "FISK 4.0 aims to develop knowledge and build research capacity for value creation and transformation in the marine and maritime sector in Møre og Romsdal. The project is based on the ocean fishing fleet, where there are national and international expectations for growth and sustainability. This requires new knowledge in the development of new automated systems for handling large volumes of raw materials while maintaining high quality. The project implements Industry 4.0, a term denoting the fourth industrial revolution where integration, digitalization, and material flow (lean) are central concepts. There is a strong focus on collaboration between biological and technological knowledge so that products and processes can be linked to automation and sensor technology, a necessity in a time of rapid technological development. The project is closely aligned with Møre og Romsdal's county strategy for research and innovation.
The project has four focus areas where the overarching idea is to facilitate COLLABORATION between the industry and national and international expertise. Research environments will act as facilitators, connecting relevant capacity and expertise, thereby fostering increased competitiveness in both industry and academia. The clusters participating in the project will be particularly important as guiding forces and arena builders. They represent a vast network of companies in various sectors that, through collaborative activities, will lay the foundation for cross-sectoral innovation. FISK 4.0 views the entire value chain holistically and aims to accelerate transformation and reduce risks for the offshore fishing fleet and related value chains. This will be realized through the development of new technological solutions in the FACTORY (ii) and assessing how the factory solution impacts the construction of the BOAT (iii) and the QUALITY (iv) of the raw material. Collaborative partners include NTNU-IHB, Havfisk, Nordic Wildfish, Optimar, Teknotherm, Skipsteknisk, Norwegian Frozen at Sea, as well as the three clusters NCE Blue Legasea, NCE Ikuben, and GCE Blue Maritime."
